Johnny Stompanato
Johnny Stompanato, a reputed mobster, was found dead in 1958. His death was definitely a homicide since he was stabbed to death, but it’s still unclear who did it, her partner, Lana Turner, or her 14-year-old daughter, Cheryl Crane.
Stompanato and Turner’s relationship was an abusive one, with many arguments and fights, and a lot of people knew that he physically abused her partner. Additionally, he was extremely jealous and even threatened Turner’s daughter with a gun.
Even though it is said that he was stabbed to death by Turner’s daughter, in self-defense, many people believe Lana was the one that killed him but let her daughter take the blame so she wouldn’t lose her career and avoid prison time.
Stompanato’s death was ruled as justifiable homicide, done by a protective 14-year-old teenager who was just trying to help her mother. However, many details are still unclear and Cheryl Crane is the only person that could clarify the mysterious death, but she’s choosing not to talk.

All that I know was that I saw Elvis in Baltimore at one of his last concerts.
When he started to perform, it seemed that he had a hard time standing up.
Several times, during his performance, he was almost carried off stage, some other
singers performed. They helped Elvis come back on stage; however, he was off and
on during most of his performance. It was so sad and to have lost a great talent was
really terrible.
